I think that would largely depend more upon the editors than upon the team itself. In reality, with all the post-leg interviews they do and all the footage that is captured, the team probably talks about a lot of things multiple times in one leg. Based on all that footage the editors have to choose from, they could (for the most part) portray the team in whatever way they choose to.
